Important Considerations for HANA
SAP HANA Still Requires Disks for Persistence
External Storage Supports High Availability in what SAP calls a “Scale-Out” Installation
– Allows each Node to Become a Worker or a Standby Node – Activation of a Standby Node is Triggered by the HANA Nameserver
EMC VNX5300 Most Suitable for SAP HANA – Flexibility through Multi-Protocols (unifies file and block) – Optimum Performance – Optimum TCO – Highest Reliability
EMC provides a strong architectural foundation for upcoming SAP HANA features
– i.e. Remote Replication for Disaster Tolerance & Backup
